i. am. thankful.
- the "comfort" of coffee (it may have something to do with the fact that I associate it with my sister and with the beach)
- time with the lankfords, lyons and neals (sweet fellowship & delicious meat!)
- things went well at CCC Sunday morning - kids shared in kingdom kids, nick shared the breakpoint testimony, I didn't have to say anything :)
- good time at the saucier's
- the heart CCC & Crosspointe have for missions
- when people ask thoughtful questions
- yaya & granddaddy's willingness to let us stay at their house
- a lazy day
- time with mary (and the fact that she was perfectly ok with me still being in my pajamas)
- the doughnuts the aforementioned lady brought with her
- "time alone with Me is essential for unscrambling your thoughts." - jesus calling
- caroline's pierced ears (and her excitement!)

- time at the playground at lakebottom
- the sweet new "oval-about" at the park - it makes crossing the street so much nicer!

- the Chambliss's hospitality, friendship & encouragement
- how much emma enjoyed jumping off the diving board (sorry that it's sideways...a little neck exercise is always good)
- the way the cash kids were at the dollar store...surprisingly content to get one thing.
- cherry coke (with crushed ice) delivered to "my spot" at crave
- being reminded that it's not about me.
- a delicious meal at Carrabba's. so good.
- a new book to read/Brittany's generosity to share it with me
- the sense of understanding I felt when I read Francis Chan's words "we left some deep & irreplaceable friendship to enter the unknown."
- the soldiers who have served our country so willingly and so strongly (and their families who sacrifice so much)
- freedom. independence. democracy.
